This is actually way better than those boring white noise generators.

Do you mean politicians?

Irish musician here, missing regular sessions at Patrick's Pub in Providence, RI. Smithwicks' Ale for the players, random audience members singing Irish songs in Irish and English, we are all missing the community, especially since our outdoor jams ended 5 months ago.

Hope to see you there when they reopen!

To recreate it more authentically, additionally dip an old towel into stout and frying oil and hang over a radiator.

for a more authentic experience here are some visuals (free of charge) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-o4iZqa2VEg

That was Game of Thrones!

You had Cercei, Mormont, Hodor and Tyrion!

I don't think that's a bug. The old man NEVER stops talking!

It's not a bug; it's a feature.

This.

Am I missing something? The Play button isn't even clickable on my Catalina Safari, Firefox and Brave.

I love these kinds of projects. My favorite of online noise is https://mynoise.net/ Infinitely configurable, can save personal settings in a cookie. Good stuff

This looks great! I've been using https://asoftmurmur.com/ because I like the "meander" feature which gives a randomness to the noise. Strangely I find "flat" noises (like a fan running at a constant speed) to be too distracting. Looks like mynoise has a similar feature called "slider animation" and lots more selection.

Creepy shit

Creepy will be when augmented sensory enhancements emphasize certain people, objects, and themes while obscuring others. I can't remember if that was a Black Mirror episode or not.
